Shaman meleeing 1-50: 1hand/shield or 2hand?

[skarlorn]

you're talking about the time it takes to kill a mob in relation to it's impact on overall leveling speed, which is absolutely impacted by downtime, etc.

So what your saying is Skarlorn made an otherwise overlooked contribution to the conversation. GJ leatherfoot.

Rune etched wurmfang + shield of falsehood until epic is the correct itemisation choice until epic. Gotta look good.

so much miss information.. *sigh*
especially by people who dont even have a level 60 shm.

[Jimjam]

A lot of misinformation by people that don't even have a barb shaman.

These are the weapon damage caps that Demonstar55 said Live had, and Haynar thanked Demonstar55 for his input when he patched them. I'm not 100% sure all of them are exactly the same, but I know a monk can't get max damage from an IFS until 30+ and a 60 caster with a Rod of Annihilation is treated as if the weapon is 40/40.

Even the wiki isn't right. My 25 monk with a staff of battle has an alleged "30" damage cap, but he hits for more than 60 pretty frequently. He's hit into 100+, though not often.

Granted, he hits for 60 more often than anything else, but that's hardly the "cap". I don't think at 25 he gets any innate bonuses, right?

The damage cap only relates to the damage added by the weapon. Dmg added via ATK buffs (including str) cause you to do moredmg
